When either playing with honor, or being cheap as hell, this is one of the best weapons in the game, along with the Gnasher Shotgun and Torque Bow. When using this weapon, you have to take into account on-host and off-host mechanics, [[Roadie Run]]ning after every shot, and the different type of sniper killing techniques: * Leadshot: Lead your crosshair by holding LT in a spot where you definitely know where the player will go and shoot them. * Sweepshot: Hold LT and press RS if player is far; if not only hold LT. Like leadshotting, lead the shot and swipe and shoot. If player is far, swipe the small crosshair. * Popshot: Tap LT and tap RT quickly when in range. LS + A when you are about to be gibbed or think you will. * Zoomer: LT + quickly press RS + quicky press RT. * Two Piece: Melee + LT and RT. Aim very slightly upwards of the player's head. * Blindfire: Since the bullets come from the center of the screen, aim your gun slightly up, perfect active reload or active reload for honor, spam RT until hilarity ensues. * Rollshot: LT, then RT after a player barely gets out of a dodge roll. After a player dodge rolls they stand still for a few frames, leaving them vulnerable. A variation of the leadshot. * Superman/Spiderman/Aquaman: Timing the headshot when the player is rolling. Superman is the start of the forward animation of the dodge roll; Spiderman is the ending of the forward animation of the dodge roll; and Aquaman is the beginning of the backward animation of the dodge roll. * Hangman: When the player vaults over cover as Locust or COG, shoot. When a COG player does the rolling mantle kick-like animation, shoot over the small space over their head. 41c18d9d78fb5556a691b236e743a3065a1fd0f0
